Very Boring Post

Some days I have nothing to say, and no poetic muse inspired
me today, so here’s an update on my exercise progress: I have been running in
place for a mile every morning (except yesterday, but I walked 12,000 steps and
went up the equivalent of 11 flights of stairs), and it seems to be making a
difference. However, I have been bad about getting to the gym for weight
training. My old UGGH Club buddies are back to their usual shenanigans at 6:00
am, and there is no way I am getting up that early. When Travalon and I go to
the club on Monday evenings, we swim. Tonight I plan to do weights for the
first time in ages – maybe I will even do Strength Training without Mercy! My
other usual source of exercise is my lunchtime rosary walk, but yesterday I
didn’t do it, between hiking at Cherokee Marsh and walking around the exhibit
hall all afternoon. Today I went to a lunchtime seminar on financial planning
for women. That was fun – they fed us well, and I saw some old pals there – but
obviously there was no time for a walk. Still, I did run in the morning and
will do weights this evening, so this week my exercise regimen is going better
than my prayer life!

About Me

I am a third-hand gift, a straw hat with a wide brim. I used to have natural and navy stripes, but after much time in the sun, the navy ones have faded to a sort of chocolatey tone. The big blue flower around the brim was my wearer's own touch.
